The girls were ably assisted by the father of the house.

A ‘‘dummy’”’ cook had been arranged, whose face, Mrs. Clem-|8 large blue pan, had been orna- 'mented with eyes, nose and moutk, and a smile of joy wreathed her face. At her feet countless packages were heaped, which, when opened by Mies Groover, proved to be useful articles of blue and white kitchen wear. Af- ter admiring these useful articles, the guests were invited to the par- lors where the young men were giv- en cup towels to hem, the young la- dies being their instructors. A mer- ry hour ensued, following which the guests were invited to the dining room where steaming chafing dishes gave up their delectable offering of hot welgh rarebit, with which was gerved pickles and crackers, followed by punch and cake.
